[CM] Xemacs and Listener response

[taube at uiuc.edu]

You might try switching to the Win xemacs which seems to work better, at least
in my experience. I think cm.sh even supports launching a Win Xemacs under
cygwin but I cant rememeber offhand how to do this, ill have to look at the code
when i have a bit of time.
